The new NavigationServer adds support for obstacle avoidance using the RVO2 library, and navigation meshes can now be baked at runtime. And for more advanced use cases, there is now also TextMesh to generate 3D meshes from font glyphs, so you can add Word Art to your scenes ;). and backported to 3.5.

This seemed like a great idea at the beginning, but ended up giving us many problems, such as: Bad performance on old mobile/desktop hardware which wasn't designed for the more modern rendering techniques being used. Incompatibility with older mobile devices which do not support OpenGL ES 3.0. On mobile, as OpenGL ES 3.0

Just set up the probe bounds and do a fast pre-bake of static objects. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. For low-end systems or mobile devices, we provide a more classical lightmapping workflow. The only downside is that it requires medium to high-end hardware to work.

Last but not least, lightmaps baking is now done using the GPU to speed up the process significantly. Several new optimization techniques are also at your disposal, such as occlusion culling , automatic mesh LOD , and manual HLOD using visibility ranges , made possible by Joan Fons ( JFonS ), and Juan. has been added by Je06jm.

By adding a simple cache to it, we made it so that light map texture coordinates are only computed when there's an actual change to the geometry of the mesh. Here you can see the Sponza demo model, with baked direct lighting, and the corresponding light map: Note that this first pass is not taking occlusion into account yet.
